The Committee notes that the Government’s report contains no reply to previous comments. It must therefore repeat its previous direct request which read as follows:

Further to its previous comments the Committee takes note of the Government’s indication that it recognizes the need to give legal backing to practice as regards remuneration of workers. The Committee notes that the National Advisory Committee on Labour has recommended that the Attorney-General’s attention be drawn to the above stated lapses for the relevant sections of Labour Decree No. 1967 NLCD 157, namely sections 53, 54 and 55, to be amended to ensure conformity with Articles 11 (to pay wages directly to the worker, to prohibit the payment of wages in stores, to pay wages at regular intervals) and 12 of the Convention (to take measures to regulate advances on wages). The Committee hopes that the Government’s next report will state that the legislation has been amended to bring the legislation into conformity with national practice and with the Convention on these issues.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
